Tea board rubbishes charges, says tea is very safe
- 5 years ago
The Food and Agriculture team of Greenpeace, a non-profit organization that deals with environmental issues, released a report which claimed that tea being sold by 8 of the 11 biggest tea brands in India contained pesticides. Greenpeace tested 49 samples, of which 46 tested positive for one or more pesticide. This study caught the attention of people through the country and even got the Tea Board of India to respond in a matter of hours.
The story continues as now the Crop Care Federation of India (CCFI), a non-profit organization representing the Indian agrochemical industry, has released a statement dismissing the claims made my Greenpeace. The statement, written and signed off by Rajju Shroff, Chairman of CCFI states that Greenpeace's report is part of a bigger conspiracy on part of foreign funded environmental activists to discredit Indian tea brands.
